8 Button RS232/IR Control Panel Installation & Operation Manual

Introduction1.

1.1. Introduction to the 8 Button RS232/IR Control Panel

The programmable control panel is a Wall-Mounted Control Panel. Every button is

programmable and works either individually or together. The programmable control

panel is built with the following interface: three (3) RS232, One (1) RS485, Three (3)

Infrared, two (2) Relay, and one (1) mini USB for programming.

Please note that:

“RS232 (1)”and “IR2”share the same port, and cannot be used at the same

time.

“RS232 (2)”and “IR3”share the same port, and cannot be used at the same

time.

The 8 Button RS232/IR Control Panel can control MuxLab products, as well as third

party devices such as projectors, screens etc. It is an easy-to-use control device for

presentation show rooms, classrooms and boardrooms.

1.2. Features

Each button can be programmed to send bi-direction RS232 and RS485

commands simultaneously to control MuxLab and third party devices.

Each button can be programmed to send infrared codes and control the

relays simultaneously to control MuxLab and the third party devices.

Each button supports a built in infrared code and RS232 code learning

function, including baud-rate setting.

ID looping function. Up to 99 units may be chained (looped) and controlled

together, via an ID identification.

The unit may be programmed through the USB or RS232 port, via the Control

Panel PC Software.

The unit supports backlit buttons with easy to change customizable labels.

The backlit brightness is controllable.

Face-Plate Dimension: 11.4cm (H) x 7cm (W).

Antistatic case design: providing good protection for long-term and stable

performance.

1.4. Installation

Follow the steps to install the device:

First, cut a hole on the surface of where the unit is to be installed, such as on a

desktop or desk-side panel, etc. Cut to the size indicated by the cut-out diagram in

Figure 1.

Second, fit the unit into the cut-out and adjust it so that it is flush with the surface (see

Figure 2).

Next, screw the unit face-plate securely to the surface with two screws and nuts.

Lastly, connect the unit power connector to the provided 12VDC power supply, but

do not connect the 12VDC power supply to the AC power outlet at this time.

Button

Crystal clear and luminescent, programmable buttons:

Each button can be independently programed using the

Control Panel PC Software. To do so run the application

and connect the computer via a USB or RS232

connection to the 8 button RS232/IR Control Panel (see

section 5 for details on using the Control Panel PC

Software, found on the MuxLab website).

Each label within a button can be easily changed.

Simply select the label you need and change it as

Power

Power connector: 12VDC. Please make sure the “+”

and “-” are connected correctly (using the correct

polarity), in order not to damage the unit.

Relay

Low Voltage Relay.

Output Port

(Section 1)

RS232 (1)/IR2: RS232 (1) and IR2 share the same

port, the actual use depends on the configuration set

by the Control Panel PC Software. When configured

for RS232, it is a unidirectional transmission,

meaning data may be transmitted, but not received.

IR1: IR1 may be used to control devices, and can be

program via the Control Panel PC Software.

RS485: The RS485 can be programmed to control a

device via the RS485 port. The command set for

RS485 is the same as for RS232 (1).

Output Port

(Section 2)

The section includes two groups:

RS232 (2)/IR3: RS232 (2) and IR3 may be used to

control devices, or used for chaining (looping output).

RS232 (3): RS232(3) may be used to control

devices, used for chaining (looping output), or to

connect to a computer when programming the 8

button RS232/IR Control Panel.

These two groups share the same ground.

Transmit the infrared data when learning IR

(Optional).

IR Sensor

Receives and learns IR codes, in order to build an IR

command database.

4.1. Safety Precautions

The system should be installed in a clean environment with temperature and humidity

levels within the specified operating range.

All devices should be connected before turning on power.

4.2. System Diagram

The programmable 8 Button RS232/IR Control Panel (also references here-in as

programmable Control Panel) can send commands to different ports at the same time.

Meaning, each button can send RS232 commands, RS485 commands, IR codes and

control the relays with a single push of one button. See the example system diagram

below (Figure 3).
